I just watched Manchester by the Sea, and I don't understand why it has a 96% on Rotten Tomatoes. There was nothing enjoyable or particularly moving or good about the film. It was boring. There didn't seem to be any deeper meaning other than that grief sucks. The lack of chronology at the beginning didn't make the storytelling more interesting in any way, it was just more confusing. The characters didn't go through any interesting changes or do anything noteworthy. If you haven't already seen it, save those two hours of your life and do something else. Taking a two hour nap will benefit you more than seeing that movie.
